RIVER OF RHYME

As mind guides gliding pen to write
attempts at poetry late at night
words I choose then swap or trade
pour out in blue ink c c c...........
......................................a a a........
.......................................s s s..........
........................................c c c............
.........................................a a a....................
..........................................d d d........................
...........................................e e e...........................
...........................................s s s.................................
...........................To come to rest in a deep pool
...........................of verses written by this fool
...........................so when you read this please be kind
...........................for scribbler now has lost his mind

one of these days I'll get this to post the way I really intend. There should be more space between cascades so as to resemble a water fall

Have you never heard of truth in advertising? I keep trying to get this type form punctuation to post as I want it to and keep stubbing my toe on apparent lack of computer skills. In initial write, the image of a cascade was clear(even with the period lines). Then I hit review and everything contracts. When I use advanced formatting to get rid of periods and get letter spacing right, I wind up with double spaced lines which dilute image. I'm a gonna git this hyar 'puter stuff figgered out someday lol.......stan
